21 Sept 2014: Kshama Sawant: Speech from Peoples Climate March NYC
A day before the largest climate action in history, Kshama Sawant joined Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, activists Naomi Klein, Bill McKibben and Chris Hedges in New York City for a panel discussion to debate the way forward for the environmental movement. Video jumps directly to Kshama, and you can read the speech below...
(excerpts) Our demands to the so called world leaders also need to be clear.
We need massive public projects to put an end to fossil fuel as part of a rapid transformation to clean energy, along with a dramatic expansion of mass transitall of which would create millions of living-wage, unionized jobs...
We must face up to the fact that the so called free market will not be able to end its addiction to fossil fuels, and certainly not at the speed that is required...
It was great to hear Bernie Sanders tonight. There has been some talk about Bernie running for President in 2016, to provide an alternative to Hillary Clinton.

Take that! Mr. Sardar remembers them saying. Tell everyone we scalped you!
Mr. Sardar is a Dalit, a class of Indians who are not just considered lower caste, but technically outcaste what used to be called untouchable. Bound at the bottom of Indias Hindu society for centuries, the Dalit population, now estimated at more than 300 million, has been abused for as long as anyone can remember...
In late October, a 14-year-old Dalit girl was beheaded by an upper-caste man whose wife said he hated the girl specifically because of her caste. A Dalit scavenger was tied up and fatally whipped outside a factory in May, in a beating captured on video and broadcast across India. In March, a Dalit man was killed by higher-caste men for riding a horse (traditionally, Dalits arent supposed to do that)...

Coming from Mumbai she's shocked at inequality and poverty in United States. Can you wrap your head around that hutzpah? Sounds like an H1-B visa ingrate.
